Wireless cycle computers have turn out to be more affordable, less complicated to find and much more reliable in modern many years and that is a superior factor. Some parts feel a little cheap to the touch; for example, the front flywheel is housed in plastic which chips and cracks easily, the bike computer weighs nothing and has these foil buttons, and the “bio-whatever seat with lumbar” is entirely made out of foam, and nothing is adjustable on it either. Those who are into racing and personal training should consider going upmarket and spending a little more to get a good quality model from a reputable manufacturer that is sure to work well and be reliable.
